The Impact of Language on Decreasing Stigma Surrounding Addiction

Language plays a crucial role in shaping our perceptions and attitudes towards addiction. By using stigmatizing language, we inadvertently contribute to the negative stereotypes and discrimination faced by individuals struggling with substance use disorders. It is important to be mindful of the words we use when discussing addiction, as they can either perpetuate stigma or help reduce it.

Choosing person-first language, such as referring to someone as a person with a substance use disorder rather than an "addict" or "junkie," can help humanize individuals and emphasize their worth beyond their condition. By changing the way we talk about addiction, we can create a more compassionate and understanding society that supports those in need of help.
